I'm suggesting that someone with the technical ability and know how should take and modify synchronet and syncterm so that after the initial dial up connection they perform a handshake and perform a key exchange and then the remainder of the session is encrypted (TLS).  The keys can be public keys generated by gnupg, openssl, gnutls or libressl.
